I’m glad your typo was “start trek” and not “start wars” because rambling is a noble hobby and warmongering is… not so much.

Want to feel old? Duke Nukem 3D came out closer to the collapse of the Ptolemaic Dynasty than to the present day.
Yes, when I realised I had a moment of sudden, uncomfortable shock. I had to pause the movie I was watching, which was about shark attacks.
